Forward Rendering

• Lights calculated per object in the main fragment shader.
• Few lights
• mobile/VR

Q: Do we need a separate pre-built shader for this?
A: TBD

Q: Should we set a maximum allowed lights for this? (Current implementation as of writing uses 4 point lights, 1 directional light and 1 spotlight.)
A: TBD

Deferred Rendering

• G-buffer stores world data
• lighting is applied in a separate full-screen pass.
• Many lights
• more complex scenes
